- Won a power struggle with a major member of the front office
- Hire their buddy as defensive coordinator who had no business being a defensive coordinator
- With the same team for over 10 years
- Hired Jim Washburn as defensive line coach
- Other than 1 Super Bowl appearance (a loss on the final drive), continuously underachieved in the playoffs, but at least they made it a lot
- Final years included taking a team with massive expectations to win totals in the 6-8 range
Only thing left for Andy Reid to do is wear an Eli Manning jersey in public during their bye week.

Made this comparison back when Fisher was close to the way out. I thought he compared very close to Reid who wasn't viewed as negatively on this forum as Fisher.

I enjoyed the Fisher era more than most...
but even I can admit, that's a quality post.
